How to make a festive wreath

You Will Need

• Three short sprigs of fir
• Two stems of variegated holly with berries attached
• Three larch stems with cones attached
• 15 crab apples with stalks attached
• Wreath base, wire or natural (25cm diameter)
• Green florist wire (0.46mm/26swg diameter)
• Red satin ribbon (1.4m long x 3.5cm wide)

Total time: 30 minutes

Step 1

Secure three short sprigs of fir to a wreath base with wire. Repeat by overlapping each bunch, wrapping the wire around the wreath as you go.

Step 2

Attach holly sprigs and larch cones and stems to the wreath using short lengths of wire. Wind wire around the stems of a cluster of crab apples.

Step 3

Poke the wire into the back of the wreath and secure in place at the back. Attach a ribbon to the top (where it'll hang from) and make a bow.
